After some more discussion, let's take a straw poll. I know many people are using git already. If "many" accounts for most of our contributors, we should really consider making the transition.

As Robbie mentioned, most of the git fans are already using git-svn
(I'm one of them).
So we could perhaps wait for a bit to see how the trial unfolds.
My concern is, that not everybody may be ready to use git at this
point, so if we switch, then we will be disrupting the work for some
folks.

Rather than taking a vote, we could perhaps do a survey (anonymously
or otherwise)  among our committers to see what they feel about moving
to git exclusively.

Working with both, I've found "git pull" to be *much* faster than "svn
update".  It's also much easier to specify which changed files you want
committed/posted.  That said, they're both good.  If you don't want the full
jump to Git perhaps Qpid can practice with Apache's Git Mirror while still
being on SVN.  CXF does that
(http://cxf.apache.org/source-repository.html#SourceRepository-Usinggit) and
maybe a third (?) of the CXF team uses it instead of SVN.

it is a lot easier to merge features, and work with others on changes.

The ASF board is expanding the use of GIT, in the trial group for the

we want to take the plunge?
